sı:-
Meaning:
to break
sı- was the old simple transitive verb ābreakā. Besides physically breaking objects, it is used for routing armies, capturing towns, rejecting a statement, refuting an argument and metaphorically breaking someoneās heart. It was largely displaced by sındır-; Early Middle Turkic sources already show sındur- widely used as the transitive counterpart of sın-.
